After The Breakup, I Became The Marshal’s Wife

 

Chapter 4

 

For the rest of the time, Shi Nian got acquainted with the villa again. Although this was not on the marshal’s residence, this villa was nonetheless a very high-class existence on the main star.

From the defence, to the location and even the decoration, everything was excellent. There were many things inside that even the original owner had never seen before, not to mention Shi Nian who came from a different timeline. a

The robots, however, were of the simplest kind, and all the slightly more complex and humane functions had been turned off. This was probably because the more advanced the robot was, the more functions it had, the easier it was to hack into. Probably Lu Bo Ting’s long standing habit of being cautious against problems in this area.

So even though there was nothing important information inside this villa, he had brought over this habit.

The good thing was that all the basic functions worked, cooking and washing dishes and cleaning the rooms etc. were all done very well.

Shi Nian soon wandered through all the places and figured out all the high technology. In fact, it was all very simple, all connected to the light brain, when needed, just press a button, it was very convenient.

After he finished roaming around, he couldn’t help but glance at the third floor and the direction of the basement, on thinking of Lu Bo Ting’s words, he didn’t go to take a look after all.

When he returned to the house, he couldn’t resist making another big purchase. In the blink of an eye, a million star coins had been spent by him.

When he took a look at the balance, he didn’t take it seriously, he had always been like that. He had suffered and endured a lot since childhood, but he had never been short of money. He felt as if his status as a phoenix was not worthy of him if he didn’t spend a lot of money.

After a good night’s sleep in the big bed, it was time to go to school the next day.

The original owner and the scumbag were in the same school. It was a military academy, the sixth school of the main star, called 6th school of the Aussie Empire.

Looking at this ranking, one can know that the top five schools are overwhelmed with applications so admissions were only to the best students. With the original owner’s qualifications, he wouldn’t have been able to get into the first school of the Aussie Empire.

The worst of those accepted there would have to be a B grade in mental power, and C grade would not be wanted. The original owner had good grades and talent, but in the end, his mental power was too low and his grades weren’t good enough to get special treatment.

No one knew about the uniqueness of his quantum beast either, so he could only enrol in the later schools.

It was also just that Lu Bo Ting, being a marshal and having a need for this, somehow found out about the mutated canary accidentally before, and this employment relationship came about.

The employer was very considerate and left him a flying machine in case Shi Nian was not able to travel conveniently to school.

The flying machine only needed a set destination and it would fly on its own, picking the right route and automatically arriving at the destination. Shi Nian didn’t have a license to fly the craft, so he couldn’t turn on the manual pilot, he just had to sit back and wait.

When he arrived at the place, he jumped out of the craft and followed the memories of the original owner all the way to the place where the class was held today. Along the way a number of people had cast glances at him.

After all, the post about Ji Yiqing’s  ‘fish slaps’ inside the large pool was still high up on the forum. No one wasn’t curious about this other main character who had also flopped in the water.

However this main character ……

“Why do I feel that Shi Nian is not quite the same as usual today?”

The original owner’s usually clean but washed out clothes were gone and replaced with ones not did not look cheap at all. He was not only introverted, but he rarely looked at people, but this Shi Nian was looking up, confident and slightly arrogant.

The key thing question was: “Did he look this good before, it felt like a new person ……”

Shi Nian completely ignored the stares and made his way to the classroom.

There were also people in the classroom discussing about him, and when he entered there were two people still talking, “I heard that someone saw Shi Nian, in better shape than before, not at all like he experienced the blow of losing his love.”

“What blow, I was disillusioned by Ji Yiqing being slapped by a fish, Sh Nian was probably still at the scene, even a thick filter can’t withstand such a shattering.”

“By the way, I heard there was a video of Shi Nian inside the pool before, did you watch it?”

“Watched it, but didn’t have time to save it, it was deleted …… It’s said that Shi Nian spent 100,000 coins to not allow that video to appear on the campus forum.”

“Really?”

They were all still students, a hundred thousand was a lot of money.

“Yes really.”

Shi Nian found his seat and sat down as he answered smoothly.

The two students who were talking at first heard someone answer, not yet reacting to who it was, the moment they turned their heads the words had already come out, “Brother, you know the inside story…Shi…Shi Nian?!”

“It’s me.” Shi Nian paused, only to say: “There is nothing else to say about the inside story. The forum administrator is very powerful and worked very quickly. I am satisfied with the service.”

The two students: “……”

Shi Nian had already turned his head away and started to study the desks.

The desks are all equipped with light screens, which were delivered through the light brain, and the textbooks and notes are all inside. It was his first day at school and Shi Nian didn’t want to make a fool of himself, so he took the time to familiarize himself with them before class started so he wouldn’t be in a mess.

The original owner studied pharmacology, which was not available in the world he lived in before. However, when he followed Bai Xiaoya later on, he had learnt alchemy and weaponry.

Although they were not the same, at least alchemy and potions had something in common, and with the original owner’s memory, he could barely understand what the teacher had said. He studied hard in a serious manner, but the onlookers were stunned.

The breakup has probably affected him in a way that he seems to be better looking, richer and more arrogant.

They looked at Ji Yiqing again and wondered who dumped who in the end!

But S-ranked spiritual students are still rare, especially in their school, so there are still quite a few brain-dead fans who keep speaking up for Ji Yiqing, but who let the gossip get back to the big fish pond scene.

It was worse than having no one to speak up for him. This was more humiliating, Ji Yiqing thought in annoyance.

Can’t his fans not give a damn.

None of his friends dared to take time off school, but they felt like people were laughing at them all day, not to mention the fact that they were green in the face when they saw the photos of Shi Nian’s current situation on the forum.

But they couldn’t go and explain to anyone what had happened yesterday. What do they have to explain, that it wasn’t cause Ji Yiqing couldn’t get up but because they were all trying to kiss ass?

It’s even more humiliating to say that.

This led to them not being in the best shape all morning and getting a few lectures from the teachers in training sessions, which made them even more angry and their faces turned green.

As soon as the group left the building, they saw a beautiful Shi Nian.

He was standing there, like he always did, waiting for Ji Yiqing like in the past.

The group instantly felt that they had realised something, and when they saw Shi Nian’s new clothes, they thought that he was trying to be more spirited to please Ji Yiqing, so that they could renew their friendship.

“He’s thinking too much.” One of them said immediately.

“Let’s go.” The other one said, “Let’s go over there and teach him a lesson for this morning.”

At that moment, a couple came out behind them. The guide was Yan Huaxin from the pharmacy department, who often went to pick up his boyfriend.

The two of them walked past them and towards Shi Nian.

“Sorry to keep you waiting.” Yan Huaxin pointed to the sentry beside him and introduced them, “This is my boyfriend Zhang Jingkai, come on, let’s go eat together.”

Shi Nian simply said a few words and left with these two.

He’s gone!

Ji Yiqing’s flock of friends stayed there in disbelief. It was only after a long time that someone gritted his teeth and said, “What’s going on?”

Of course, it was that Shi Nian who had made a new friend.

Yan Huaxin was one of those who were discussing Shi Nian when he went to class today, and although he was a little embarrassed to be caught by Shi Nian himself, Shi Nian’s disposition made him very fond of him, so he took the initiative to strike up a conversation later on and made a lunch date.

As for waiting for Ji Yiqing, it was entirely that group of people who thought too much.

After lunch, there was a class in the afternoon that involved going into the lab.

In the past, Shi Nian had only entered an alchemy room, so it was good that the original owner’s memory had what the lab looked like. With his excellent learning ability, he managed to get through the entire class without any problems.

Instead, he dispensed a tube of medicines and found it quite interesting. He then looked up how much it would cost if he wanted a separate lab of his own.

“Looks like I’ll have to make more money after all!”

With no hope of that happening, at least for now, Shi Nian closed the search interface, opened online shop again, and bought a bird climbing frame to be delivered to the villa.

This bird climbing frame was originally for some bird quantum beasts, and Shi Nian deliberately picked one that looked like a sycamore tree. Although it was not a real tree, it was at least similar in shape and slightly worthy of his phoenix.

When he returned to the villa, he was content to let his phoenix out to fly up. While using his human body to review what he had learned today, he controlled his phoenix to fly around the courtyard of the house, and when he got tired of flying, he nestled it on the bird climbing frame.

He decided to sing some songs to pass time.

When Lu Bo Ting returned, Shi Nian was singing “Good New Year”. The moment the aircraft stopped, the sound came in from the other side. The song was not popular enough, but it sounded quite good.

Xue Chi couldn’t help but say, “It’s true that most people who own bird-like quantum beasts sing better.”

The duo entered the house one after the other, and the bird inside stopped singing when it heard the movement and crouched in the tree to look over.

Shi Nian turned off his light brain and looked to Lu Bo Ting, pointing with a lift of his chin to the bird climbing frame.

“The quantum Beast over there is all yours for the night.”

Lu Bo Ting: “……”

Adjutant Xue coughed dryly, “There’s such a plan, but when you say it like this, it feels….”

“Don’t always feel, it’s time to eat.” Shi Nian said.

“By the way, thank you for the video yesterday.”

Adjutant Xue was about to say that there was no need to thank him for his duty, when he heard Shi Nian’s next sentence.

“Good job, I’ll call you again for the next job.”

Adjutant Xue: “……”
